BASEBALL.
TBE PRIZE. TOURIVEY.
Alaska vs. Hudson.
A. Serious Occident.
Tbo nm nutcb of tire toarney in wtucb tbe Hadsoas of
Brook] jn ud tbo Flyaway asd ,41— km dab* of Now York
bftTe entered In a contest for a mme or 9100 and a eUrer
ball waa common oed on the union Qronnda. BrooUyn*
on Oct. 23, the flnt teams to an tar the list being the new
nines oftbe Hudson and AJaaka CI aba. Tbe weather was
warm and pleasant, and tbe attendance nomeroas, while
tbo matcb Itself nroTed to be quite np to tbe Leans or In-
ternational standard, as tbe score shows. Tbe Hnasone pre-
■ent«d tho ama taam as plmjwl in tho metropolitan tonr-
ney. with tbe eoteeptlon of the ubatltailon of Msxslsnd of
tbe Wltoksj as catcher in tbe plaae ol Joe Farrell. tbe lat-
ter being 1 finable to play any more, on account or bnatnets.
The Alaska team, however, was a combination nine, ln-
eladlng; and H ,tlM " lft T l of tbe Cblcagos, Kent ol
the Bodsona of Hudson, and others not original Ala&bas,
bnt lonr of tbo lattsr playing In tbo team. The contest
was close np to the flith Inning, id which the Alaskan
made the first ran of the frame, the score stand Lng at 1 to
0 at the end of that Inning. In the sixth blanks were
scored by both nines, and in the seventh each sUCed two
runs to their score, tbe Alaskan still leading, this time by
3 to 2. In the eighth inning the End nous added a nlngto
to their score, and, blanslntr their adversaries, tied tbe
score— 3 to 3. Tbo contest now became qnlte ex-
citing/, as the play was flrat-class, and each nino was
doing Its !evel best to win. In tbe ninth toning tho
Hodsona were disposed of for a blank, and then the
Alaakas went in to win. Two men were on bsj-ea.
with one man oat, when Rice bit a high ball to left
C^ntre-fleld. which R. Smith and ttcCord both ran In
tor. No call was made for one or the other to take
tbe bail, or. If It was. It was not heard amidst tbe applause
following the hit. At any rate. R. Smith had no sooner
caught the ball than, almost simultaneously. McCord
collided wtth bun. and. being the shorter man, his
head struck Smith's Jaw with mco force as to lay
the flesh open, besides knocking aim senseless, SlcConl
being so stunned by the shock that he did not know
what he was about. Taking unfair advantage of the acci-
dent* Itarkln Tan roand the bases and scored a run, tbe
umpire not only falling to decide the ball as caught, bnt
also to call 4 *Ttme, 11 as he should have done the moment
he saw the accident occur By this means two runs were
scored which the Alaska* were not morally entitled to,
tbe umpire failing to discharge bis duty on the occasion.
The Injured players were removed to their respective
homes, and temporary substitutes replaced them until the
lnnlntrn play was finished.

ness for tbe borne nine. Aside from this, it wss a splendid
game on the nart of tbe Albany*, their fielding being well-

The above nme clooed tho playing then for the season.
It has been a nlghly successful one. and tbe directors of tbe
Albany Club have, it la said, a surplus ot five thousand dol-
lars In their treasury. Conndertng that the club has been
organized but Little over two months, and that, besides tbe
expense ot the players. It cost at least 32,000 to put tbe
Bounds In order, this result la very ssilsfactory, and proves
that baseball properly managed la a popular and profitable
amusement In Albany. Additional Improvements will be
made in tbe grounds be fore next season opens. The entire
share ol tbe Albany Club In the game ot Oct. 21, amounting
to nearly three hundred dollars, was, through tbo kindness
of the directors, divided among tho players. The follow-

TBE CH5CTW If/ATI CX.TJB. .
The best baseball dty of the West, after tnrae year* of
. DaDeeeaafnl experiment In iiiisesilMii.l i lull niaiiamniHiiil.
has at last taken the right path again, as lniaDaod'69.
On Oct. 16 ins Cincinnati CInb team of 1878 ended its
caner, and, alike la Its club management and Its fine play-
ing. It has closed the next best season to the celebrated
champion campaign of 1889. Tbe elnb officers of tbe pres-
ent organization havs honorably discharged an their
obligating, to their player* and thepnblic; and stand*
lag Ont as the champion dnb of the west, snd second In
the season's pennant contest, In the honest play oT their
team, their skillful fielding, and in the creditable
features of their elnb management daring 1878, they
rank with the best In tbe lieagne arena. No sooner
Is the dlabandment of the pala-off team of 1878 an*
nonnced than the new team lor 1879 springs Into ex-
Istence, snd, as officially stated, It is to be the strongest
the Clncunatl CInb has erer placed In tbe field. In tbe
flnt place It is a team— for the first time since 1869— which
has no cliques or rival elements In It to mar Its harmo-
nlooa working together. Beeondly, It la a team for once
a eleftert more for their playing together for the aide, and
for their fielding skill Id home posltlons.than for "splendid
battlnv." Thirdly, It Is a team which lnclodes a majority
of Its players who haro worked together for Mveral sea-
sons; and lastly. It la a team which now baa a more com-
petent manager at Its head— James White— than It has
had sines tbe dob was reorganized, some three yean ago.
Aocordlmr to the official announcement of tbe player* ot
1379 and their positions, more than ordinary Jadc-mont has
been exercised' In tbe placing of the nine as follows: Jsa
White, c ; Will White, p. ; llcVey. 1st b. ; Barnes, 2d b. ;
Gerhard t, Sdb.; Borke. a a; Dickenon, I. C; Hotallng,
c t ; Kelly, r. f. : with Foley and Sullivan as substltntea.
We nereraaw Burke, Kelly, Dickenon or SalUvan play,
and therefore we cannot comment on them except by re-
port, and that from all sources is excellent, both as re-
gards character and skill In tbe field. But the other, we
know, and we can apeak of these "by the card." The
White brothen have proved themselves to be the equals
ol the best rarrhlng and pltcblna pair who have ever
played in a league nine together, and, with the increased
field support they will have Lu 1879, If they do not head
the list In the pennant race next year we ah all be rather
surprised. Harry Wright, tough as be will find things In
Providence In 1879, will find his hardest task to win when
facing tbe new Cincinnati nine. hfcVey has been placed
In the beat position possible for him— be Is at home on
flrat-beae. as ho Is In no other position, with bis
old companion, Boston Boss Barnes, at second, and
"reliable James" behind the bat, this trio should be
the strength of the Cincinnati Infield. Oerbardt has
turned ont to ha the player we said some years ago
be would be. He can play third bass ss well ss sec-
ond, and he will gnatly strengthen what was a rather
weak place In the team of 1878. Burke Is reputed to be a
aeeood George Wright at abort field, and, as he played the
BialUonnnder Barnes this season, be will be at borne there,
otallnjr Is a fine player, a flrst-clasa ontnelder, and an ex-
cellent cDaDRs-oatoDer. Dlcieraon and Kelly are spoken
of as "good and true men," and admirably suited for the
position, aamgned them : while young Foley stands ready
to fill the place of a disabled third-baseman or catcher. It
Is scarcely worth while to place each a One nrat-baaeman
ss SalllvsB Is said to be In the reserve corps; It would
be better to let him strengthen some other team. If a
change-pitcher is required, they can aval] themselves of
Mover's servlcea Ol the hatting strength of the team we
cannot speak st present At any rate, that Is of secondary
importance to their strength as fielder* and ba se runner*,
and especially to their strength In "playing for the side."
Cincinnati has had costly experience of the folly ot select-
ing their clob team each season on the basis or a player's
batting record. They nave grown wiser by the lessons,
and now make that the secondary consideration In their
estimate. With sound management, a determination to
InaUt upon honest play, and with the beat team the club
have yet bad, the season of 1879 can be looked forward to
by Cincinnati with confidence of ancceav.

THE PJElOVIUKSfCK CX.TJB.
Thssetsrmef lflTOwill'be one very Ukeryto be marked
by the return of some of the loetabeep of tbe professional
fraternity. Several noted baD-playen have received some
a*v«re lemons In rsgard to the coat of neglecrlng a reputa-
tion for Uionrngh Integrity of character. Some of the ex.
palled men bare sorely repented their put misdeeds,
while othere who merited If they did not receive punish-
ment have "seen tbe error ot their war," and are de-
sirous of retrieving the past by (rood deeds In the future.
We refer to this suhlsct In connection with the Providence
Club, because we baveiuet heard that Gecnwe Wright and
Manager Morrow of that dub have concluded to give
McGeary, of the old Pblladelpbla nine of the days of
Philadelphia "Mutualism," a trial Is their nine of
1679. The wisdom or this course remains to be tasted by
experience. McOeary baa undoubtedly seen the folly of
not making a reputable name tbe chief aim of bis profes-
sional career. He Is a married man now. Is well off snd
seeks to regain his lost prestige. There has never been
any question of hla ability ss a player ; his services would
this season nave been at a premium In League nines, had
he been called. At any rate, George Wright has determined
to give McOesry a chance, and he has therefore engaged
him to play ataecond base in bis new nine. Dick Blgbam
ha9played like a trump this past season, and no doubt
McGeary will do likewise next year.
themselves JlAd been pat oat for 49. The war
tells were mnllM and catches wore missed was
anfflolent to have driven Brewster crazy, the
veteran doing the bowling at one end. The si-
leged ball-players went In first, and all bnt Brew-
ster were easily disposed of for dock-eggs and
small single figures, Moer&n and Sontter baring
aolte a soft thing of it In bowling them ont. Then
le eleven went in, and before the eeoond wloket
fell 62 runs had been scored. The men who floored
double, figures were all being caught
In the Held, Hoernn giving two ">""'"«« and Blelgh
two, Sontter also being let off easy. Ouddlhy
made two One catches, and fielded np to a high
mark. Levhey, Hadley and UoDermott also cap-
tured fly hails in good style, and Lawlor made a
good catch off his own bowling, he taking a
majority of wickets. Though there was plenty
ot very bad cricket, there was lots ot fun, and
the game was fully enjoyed by all who partici-
pated in It. Old BUI Crosaley acted as umpire
or the cricketers, and It looked natural to see
the veteran on the field again. In the second inn-
ing of the Brewster team they lost nine wickets
for 66 runs, Brewster making 24, Mlddleton 10,
and EauaUag a good 8. Darkness then stopped
play, the first inning given below deciding the
contest

THE CHICAGO CltTJB.
A letter from Secretary Spalding of tbe Chicago Club In
forms us of the fact that their dub team for 1879 has been
engaged, and that It Is as follows:

play of three of the above men we are not famlllsr with;
but the new team Is strong In the very point It was weak In
In 1878, and that Is In efficient support tor the pitching be-
hind the bat. with Flint to catch, Larkln will be able to
let himself cat In pitching. In quest, too. at second base,
the team will be stronger than before, and the new out-
fldd Is said to be the stronmt In the League nines. There
Is not a man in the nine, however, Imown as a good Add-
ganeral ; bnt no doubt Bpdding will be on band to super,

A LOHa BXDX, — From r*e rinnrn. Spartxwut* we
I earn that Captain Salvl aooompllahed the feat ot
riding from Bergamo, in Lombardy, to Naples,
900 kilometres, or nearly 680 English miles. In ten
days. The task was performed on Ledo, a Sar-
dinian more, whose grandalre was a pure Arab.
She stands a little over 14X hands, and is said to
be about aeven years old, gray, with an Arab fore-
head and very plain hindquarters. The last
stage, from Osserta to Naples, was ridden not
without the greatest dlBculty, the gallant little
mare being distressed beyond measure. On ar-
riving within the precincts of the city, wlth-bavlf
an hour to spare, she was unable to move on Inch
farther, and could not proceed to the cavalry
barracks, as had been arranged. She had to be
put up at the nearest stable, where She lay down
dead beat, trembling all over and refusing food
and water. Thanks, however, to the care be-
stowed upon her, she was comparatively ail right
again the following day. Captain Salvl started
from Bergamo on Sept. 23d at ten A. sl, »wri ar-
rived at Naples on Oct. 3d at halt-past nine A.
M. Previous to starting he made a bet of S.OOOf.
to do the distance in ten days.
Edwin Fobbzst, the famous trotting sire, and
the direct ancestor ot Green's "trltthrstpd trotter
ot the same name, was burned to death on the
occasion of the destruction ot the stable and stock
barn ot his owner, O. W. Ferguson, at MarBhall-
town, Iowa, Oct. 19. Ot the twenty odd stallions
and broodmares which were In the buildings,
Noroross* Manchester and Sample's Edwin For-
rest Jr. (formerly HlllBdaJe Chief) were the only
ones saved. Edwin Forrest was foaled in Oneida,
County, N. Y., in 1851, and was by Bay Kentnaky
Hunter, dam by Watklns' Young Highlander.
Ee was subsequently purchased by B. A. Alexan-
aer ot Kentucky.

finished two lengths ahead ot Plevna, who hod
deprived Btartle ot second place after passing
the half-mUe pole, and beat him out five
lengths, Rochester two lengths In the rear
of Htartle. Time, 1:48V The Compensation
Purse, $400 to first, $60 to second, mile beats, had
four starters, with Warfleld for first choice— a se-
lection which proved disastrous to his backers,
for, though he won the first beat by a bead from
jLonianler, the latter captured the two following
heats with ease by three and sight lengths re-,
spectlvely. Warfleld second In each. Time, 1 .-46V.
1 :46V, 1 :<8 The concluding race of the attar-

UONDAT, Oct. 28, "78,
Tbere were vaxloae Infldencea at work dorlnfr
tHe pest week to dnw attention Irom the thea-
tres and concentrate tt on other classes of metro-
politan entertainments and pnaaes ot great nu-
Ynec Interests. Prominent and most potent or oil
I« Us effect on our reaTUlAT places ot amnsemnnt
may be mentioned the great Cathedral Fair,
wtach. p-wqed on Tuesday eTenlng. Oct. 23, and
wMcb; up to' BatordAJ night lnoluslro, hod been
wiatted.lt la compnted, by eerenty thouaajad per-
eona. "moosands ot this great army of elght-
eeets were drawn away from the theatres, the
opera, and other permanent houses ot public
neort. The lalrls a great bucwbs, and the fair
ones with the golden and other lodes who are to
•as seen In attendance at the different bazars
wnich go to make a grand display or art and the
Industrie* ot the world are by bo means the least
at-ractlve ot the beautiful teaturee ot the
CatSsdral exhibit. It la estimated I that on
Bat irday evening last the attendance attained the
muaeaal proportions ot fltteen thousand, and "the
EreeTllat totally enspended." Bo those managers
whTrtwedSe scanty a«endance at theLrovra
bonaee wUl nnderetand how to account tor the
shrinkage in business, and the corresponding
-rli^toeea In Ore financial department. There can
to? rS^uestlon about lt-the tact stands out boldly
S^echrinb exhibition sadly Interfered with
5£lt7icai and kindred performances, rortte poet
week was an off "Tin with several uptown eatal>-
Ushmenta. While "Two Orphans" are forecast In
the down- town region of the Bowery slope
Our usual loy area turned Into deep sorrow one
day during the past week In having our atwnUon
called to the details ot a hostile encounter be-
tween a dramatic critic and an active agent jreei-
dent In this dty. "We" eeem to have been reek-
leealy maltreated by the Inhnmsn agent. Who
plasted his dexter and sinister mawleje all over
our exposed and defenseless frontispiece, and
made It Impossible tor us to appear before the
object of our adoration for three eeveral rJghtB,
raw oystere and eqoally raw beet being J^]^
upon to allay the smarts and stings of an Injure*
diaphragm while we were In en forced retirement.
It Is Shrewdly euxmlsod that other than
the pernicious agent had a band or two In
the assault upon us, and tblsaad recital of a prue
encounter between gentlemen ot an cesthetlo
turn ot mind fills ua with mordfltaaon aaddls-
trott Those whose province It Is to "hold the
mirror up to nature," and whose mission la peace
amd rood-will to men outside ot the pale ot the
critical world, feel very sore over the r»ultof
this entente, and have caused the wicked trxe-
paeaer upon their inalienable rtghta to roxTjl&h
ban u answer at conrt We hive received a,
tender piece ol poetry dedicated to one of the ex-
latlng female operatic vocalists, and we should
be pleased to give It a place In our wldely-drcu-
saled Journal were It not that the gentle compos-
er. In his enthusiasm, alleges that the timbre Of
her high notes la like unto that of the clarionet,
while the depths ot her magnificent organ are
only equaled by the low and reverberating tones
o£the' baas-drum. TheaearefanUdeXecta; other-
wise the lines are or a far higher order than those
of "Whoa, Emma I" or'QfyOraitdlaAher'sClwut."
Yes, It was kind in atr. BUM to volunteer his
services for Genevieve Ward'a benefit. A gentle-
man who has scored as many buu s-eyea and cen-
tres as he has ooght to make a hit without much
exertion. And then . Aratira air. Bird played
Aranxa, you know— that la a character admirably
fitted tor the legal temperament. Altogether, the
occasion was one which J as tines a turn or two at
.the machine:
A PLIGHT IK HONOR OF BIRD.

at least what Is left ot It, Is to be transferred to

of our age an subjected to robbery. There was
Barnum's big man, for example. He had laid np
his treasures where thieves break through and
steal— viz.. New Jersey— and he might have lost
all his jewels and plate It the burglars had not
been captured. The giant, whose everyday name
IS John Bass, will not stand this sort ot thing
much longer. That thought inspires us to sing :

....And talking abont circuses, "Our Jim" la not
very well pleased with Lotta In her new play of
"La Ci gale." It seems that the boy took her In
on Saturday night, and he says that Charlotte Is
like everybody else when they get up In the world :
lor, while she was good enough to take up with the
circus people when she was poor, and hadn't even
a cellar-door to shelter her, and found pleasure
In tbe society of the clown and Herculee, and the
lightning calculator and other sym pathetic show
people, just so soon as she finds herself an heiress
and a dukess, she fll«a her klteas high as the un-
finished Brooklyn Bridge, goes back on her old
show friends, and shakes the sawdust from her
dainty little feet- Heretofore, Jim has been an
ardent admirer of Charlotte, and has even gone so
far as to send her chewing-gum and verses to
match; but her conduct last Saturday night
opened his eyes to her perfidy, and he shakes her
like an aspen leaf. No more gum-drops for her,
no more fig-paste, no more bolivars, no more
tender lines of beautiful poetry. We. endeav-
ored to expostulate with the vicious troy, ana
explain to him that the motive of ifce play
compelled her to act as she did ; but he wouldn't
have It, "What I seen I seen, and, it that's

AT TORT FASTOB'B, during the past week, Mur-
phy and Morton, olever exponents of Irish songs-
and-dances, gave "Mary Ann McLaughlin" and
"Over There in Ireland;" Billy Carter, a local
favorite, who has been absent from the metro-
politan boards for soma time, received a cordial
welcome, his banjo-eongs and Interpolated wit-
ticisms meeting with much favor; and Bonnie
Bunnelis appeared In hla Dutch specialties, and
as Hermann Klaus In the opening sketch ot
"Tickle Me Under the Chin." These were tbe
fresh arrivals. Tony Pastor sang "Where was
Moees When tbe Light Went Out?" a ditty de-
scribing many things that Talmage did not see
during his recent "tour of New York," and an-
other painting the woes of the plague-strlokeu
South, and lauding the munificent charity of the
North, all of which were freely applauded. The
specialties ot the Irwin Slaters, Horry and John
Kernel!, Watson and Ellis, Harry Kennedy, Kitty
0*Nell. Billy Barry, and the sketch of "Unwel-
come Vial tore" tilled out the bill, to an excellent
business. '

hibited much skill, which secured the approval
of the audience: Moore and Ijosslnger. In a

mendable. In addition to these, who were tho

AT Booth's Thbatbe Jarrett A Palmer's dram-
atlo season terminated Oct. 2S. "Macbeth" waa,
acted 91, 93, 23, and "Jane Shore," which was re-
vived 34, ran the rest ot the week, "The Honey-
moon," with John H. Bird (a volunteer) as the
Duke Aranxa and Miss Ward as Juliana, being
added on the night of 35 for that lady's -farewell
benefit, George Yandenhoff, who was oast tor
Macbeth, was unable to appear owing to lllneas,
a physician's certiadate to that effect being print-
ed In the house-buta. Mllnes Levlck was substi-
tuted. J. B. Grlsmer acted Macduff 31, but was
rerlaoed by James H. Taylor 22, 28. Generlnve
Ward's conception ot Lady Macbettvwas like that
of the late Charlotte Onshmmh. While tbe
methods she used - In depicting ttso character
evinced tbat she had been a- chase erttsdont. her
portrayal as a whole was not —suram. - -Mllnes
Leviok's Macbeth was an agreeable. Aurprlse. It
was evenly snd consistently 8Mtatoen.Te.ve at the
close of the tragedy, whence was evidently some-
what disconcerted by the gentleman acting Mao-
duff. His reading was - forcible and intelli-
gent, and bore traces of thoughtful study.
He excelled In delineating Macbetb's terror and
sudden changes ot feeling, and particularly was
this noticeable In the banquet-scene, wherein he
was weHnlgh perfect. James H. Taylor's de-
livery wae monotonous, and at times Indistinct,
while at others he exhibited an uncertainty in
the knowledge of the text which caused him to
halt and stammer. J. L. Carhart is to be praised
for a thoroughly good Impersonation ot King
Duncan. Frank Little was hardly up to the re-
quired standard as Malcolm. John Swinburne's
Banquo waa creditable, and a marked Improve-
ment upon aome of hla previous efforts. Bosse
by Frank Kllday and Lennox by W. Betlhamer
were respectably acted. Harry Rich. H. C. Her-
bert and Mrs. Mattnewson were the three witches ;
Andrew Jacques, Sexton; B. C. Wheeler, the
Wounded Officer: James Lawrence, the Physician;
Little Lisle Leigh, Usance; and Mrs. J. H. Howe,
Gentlewoman, all erxhlbltlng care and attontton.
Netthxh TEafPxsrs nor political excitement
seems to prevent crowds ot people from assem-
bling nightly to enjoy the pleasing entertainments
provided by the San Francisco Minstrels. Last
week the only changes made in the programme
were a fresh finale to the first part, comprising
airs from "Evangeline." "Dan ring In the Barn,"
"Lullaby," and "The Gentlemen Coons' Parade,"
and In the olio a song-snd-dance styled "Troublo
In de Family." performed by Johnson and Pow-
ers, and "What Would Mamma Say?" and other
songs by nicsardo the male soprano.
"Tax- DKntyg." — Nlblo's Garden was filled In
every part last week, and on several nights late-
comers were unable to find accommodation. On
Oct. 31 the spectacular drama of "The Deluge"
was revived, under the personal supervision of
the Klralfy Brothers. The scenery used was that
painted by Voaajtlin when this spectacle was pro-
duced in Ban Francisco, Cal., and lt Is ot the most
magnificent deeurlptlon. The dresses, properties
and appointments were gorgeous. During the
fourth acta baUet called "The Daughters of Eve"
waa danced by an efficient corps led by Mile.
De Rosa, whose agile and graceful movements
were frequently applauded. Tho cast as a whole
may be pronounced better than that on the
occasion of Its original production In this theatre.
Cbarlea Pope played Satan : Frank Roche, Adam
and Japhet; F. A. TannehlU, Cain and Jubal:
Blanche Mortimer, Abel ; Blmcoe Lee, Ohomoe and
an old man; J. F. Peters, Moloch; Annlo Ward
Tiffany, Eve and Naome; Louise Dickson, Ga-
briel; Lottie Murray, Leonora Murt and Alice
Ransom, reepectlvely tho Spirits of Pardon, Sin
and Death; the numerous minor ports being In
competent hands The theatre haa struck a wave
of prosperity, ana' a glance at tho auditorium re-
minds one of the palmy days of "The Black
Crook."
Emka Lakx made her first appearance In this
city at Barnum's Great Show, in GUmore's Gar-
den, Oct. 31, riding a manege act. Endowed by
nature with a pretty lace and a trim, lithe figure,
she presents a graceful picture oe she eaters the
arena sitting ' .upon her thoroughbred steed.
Under ber skillful guidance, her horse moves
through a polka and a waltz: assumes aetatueeque
position by plaolng one of his forefeet upon a lit-
tle pedestal, while the other rests upon the top of
an upright column; leape tlirec high hurdlos
placed at on, ol distant points In the arena, and
then makes some wonderful successive bounds
over tbe three 'smaller hurdles placed In closo
proximity to one another. Alter giving an exhi-
bition ot rapid riding, ahe caused her hone to leap
over a very wtHe "bannor," and, just before
making her exit, to stand erect upon Its hind-
feet and walk across the Inclosure while she
maintained, her seat with apparent ease. A
torrent of applause recalled her, when she
repeated the feat last named amid lncreasod
enthuslssm. Her success was complete. Sho Is
the daughter ot the late William Lake, a well-
known enroue-manager, and her mother, Agnes,
was for many years before the publio aa a dash-
ing and grace fui rider, in private lite she la the
wile of Gli. Robinson, a son of John Robinson
ot Cincinnati, O.. the oldest circus-manager In
this country, being now 7-1 years of age. The
only other fresh appearance was David Oastello,
who In a principal equestrian act secured the
approbation of ' tbe spectators. Carl Antony,
tne exhibitor and trainer ot tho perform-
ing horses, waa unable to appear, having se-
verely injured one of his eyes by cutting lt
accidentally with the lash of his whip. P. T.
Baraum appeared In the arena afternoon and
night of Oct. M, and addressed thoso present.
The programme also Included the trained stal-
lions Mameluke and Pasha; tumbling by tbo
company; dancing table and globes by W. o.
Dale Stevens: trauexe act. and later a comical act
bytheMlaco Brothers : Bevea tableau stallions;
Mile. Vellclec the lady with the Iron Jaw ; eee-
r ponies; Linda Jeal In a hurdle-act, and Katie
Stokes in a principal act, both leaping through
large circles ot Are: Ernest Patrlzle In his feat ot
catching a cannon-ball fired from a.fleldplece:

stallions In a variety of feats; and tho comic mule
for the wind-up. The attendance was good,
though not ao large as during the opening week.
"LA ClOALE" was acted for the Orat timo in
this city Oct. 36, at the Park Theatre, whan Lotta
began an engagement. It la an adaptation, in
three acts, by Olive Logan, of a French dramatic
trine by II M. Mellhac and Halevy, and waa acted
with the following cast: La Clgale, afterwards
known aa Leila Do La tour, Lotta: Marlgnan,
an artist, Frederick Bobloson: Mlchu, his com-
panion, F. Bennett; Count De Hoppe, Jamos
Dunn ; Edgar, Viscount De Hoppe, Clement
D. Balnbrldge: Carcasonne, Manager and Clown
of the Imperial Clrcns, Ed. Marblo: BI-BI,
Hercules of the Imperial Circus, H, B. Brad-
ley; Flloche, Lightning-calculator of the Im-
perial Circus. Frederick Percy; Mona Duclore,
W. H. Wallls; Turlo, landlord, J. P. Cooko:
Lege, Master Cooke: Servant to the Count-
ess, Mr. Parker: Peter, Mr. Whlto; Oountesi
De Latour, Mrs, Charles Poole; Adele, a Paris-
tan coquette, afterwards a model. Miss Ag-
nes Proctor: Ko. C, Miss Cameron; No. T, Miss
Doyle. The dialogue la not particularly bril-
liant or well written, and, at times, lt de-
scends to coarseness. With tbe exception of La
Ctgalo and Marlgnan, the characters are mere
sketches. Two new scenes had been painted by
George Helster— one representing the Interior of
an old Inn at Fontalnebleau, which stood during
the first act, and the other, Marignan's studio,
which occupied the stage through the last act,
both reflecting credit on the sxtisL As we pub-
lished the story ot the plot shortly after the orig-
inal production of the piece, lt need not now be
repeated. The performance passed oft very
am<iothly.the action moving with celerity and the
various performers appearing at ease In their
respective roles, the reason being that the piece
bad been previously performed a number of
titnee In adjacent towns and cities. This dram-
atic sketch Is well adapted to display Lotra'a
artistlo Idlosyncraclee, and she romped. Bong
and danced with delicious abandon. She jumped
Upon the tops ol tables, spun platee. Juggled with
bolls of wonted, danced the cancan with Vis-
count De Hoppe, sang a medley of opera-
house and popular songs, and displayed agil-
ity in grotosque dances with Carcasonne; also
'played the banjo. Marlgnan, although tbe
part was unworthy of the artist, was ex-
cellently well acted by Frederick Robinson.
The character of Mlohu .Is not clearly de-
fined by the text, and, aa Mr. Bennett failed to
Invest lt with any peculiarly marked ldentlty.lt
became a nonentity. James Dunn discharged
the slight duties required ot him aa Count De
Hoppe with gentlemanly ease. Edgar was quite
creditably acted by 0. D. Balnbrldge, and we
think bis performances would bave been far
more effective had he refrained from Imitating E.
A. Bo them at times. He gives Indications of the
possession ot genuine ability, and should aim at
originality. The three cirens-performera, Car-
casonne (os clown), Bl-BI and Flloche, were so
admirably made up and well acted by Ed. Marble,
H. B. Bradley and Fred Percy respectively, that,
although they were seen only at Intervals, they
became ot no mean Importance. Mr. Marble had
further opportunity daring the second act
when he meets clgale as Leila De Latour, the
wealthy heiress ot the Oonntess ot that name-
to display his abllttlai as a vocalist and a dancer,
which won favorable recognition from the au-
dience. W. H. Wauls acted the lawyer Hons.

Countess De Latour to ascertain the whereabouts

IMsoTaA the Countess displayed taste In her cos-
tume, and in manner was ladylike and reserved.
Miss Agnes Prre or did the beet ahe could with the
bad part of Adele, and the other characters re-
ceived satisfactory treatment On Saturday night
Charles Christrup and bis entire orchestra, lately
performing In Booth's Theatre, began a season's
engagement here. Arthur Bent's cornet-solos
during the evening proved an agreeable feat-
ure. The house was crowded, and "La Clgale"
seems destined to have a run, as lt will evi-
dently please those who go to theatres simply
tone amused. No matinees will be given during
Lotta's engagement. "Old Love-letters" was re-
peated until Saturday, and was followed by
"Baby" Oct. 31, 21, 35, and "Champagne and
Oysters" 23, 33, the cast being as follows : God-
frey Oraliame, James .Lewis; Iohabod Herring.

itan debut as an t^gitab.srpi»aa-in(r actress, m the
Broadway Theatre. Oot. 31, in "Messallna," a
historical drama In five acts, which, was castas
follows: Valeria Messallna. Von Stamwllz: Mar-
cus. J. Wheelock: Colas 8111ns, O. H. Barr; Nar-
cissus. M. V. Lingham; Declus Calpurnlanus, W.

Slave, 0. F. Merlghl; Arrla. Mrs. J. L. Oarbart;
Julio, Mies Jessie Randolph ; Qloucka, Mies Kel-
logg. The work of translating the drama
from the German original haa not been effect-
ively accomplished. We much doubt lt any
piece founded upon incidents in this noto-
rious woman's career would prove suoeeestul
with the general publio. and we can to mind
tbat In the past Miss J. M. Davenport aoted
In a similar drama entitled "Valeria," writ-
ten by Epcs Bargent .of Boston, Mass., in which
she Impersonated the title - role, as well as
that of Lyclsca, a character the Roman Empress
assumed during those hours ot her life which
were devoted to questionable practices. It foiled
to attain the success hoped for, although written
In admirable language and abounding In effect-
ive situations. The piece at the Broadway was
well mounted, snd a number ot auxiliaries, male
and female, had been engaged to give due effect
to the pageantry, which Is no Inconsiderable fea-
ture. Von Stamwllz Is ot the Veatvall and Jau-
auschek schools, and possesses much of the
beauty ot face and figure of the former, and no
little of the Intensity in expressing various emo-
tions ot the latter. Her pronunciation and
emphasis of our language are faulty, and
lt Is evident tbat she labors under the seri-
ous drawback ot being compelled to think
In one language and to give expression to
those thoughts In another. She has achieved
no slight success upon the German stage, and
evinces tbe possession of abilities whtoh will with
future study and practice no doubt secure her
the fruition of her present wishes. On the open-
ing night she suffered greatly from nervousness,
and her acting did not appear to so much advan-
tage os lt did later in the week, when she was
freely applauded, and several times called be-
fore the curtain. J. F. Wheelock as Marcos had
so peculiar a part to Impersonate that, although
we have hitherto published a synopsis of tbe
story of the plot of the drama, we may be par-
doned for repeating, in other language and after
the style ot tbe police-court reporter, such por-
tions as will describe that'eharacter. One night,
when Meesallna was "cruising" in the etreets ot
Borne, she meets Marcus, and, being impressed
by his physical beauty, "picks blm up." Later
ehe causes her confidential slave, Glouoka, to
bring him by a secret passage into the palace,
and she places htm at some distance rrom her
while she contemplates and eulogises his manly
beauty. She succeeds In leading him from
the paths ot rectitude; and subsequently, while
they are In soft dalliance In a pavilion In the
palace styled the "Temple ot Venus," on enomy
of Messallna brings Arris, the motherof Marcus,
thither, with the Intention of surprising them.
Although Arrla does not gain admission to the
apartments, her son hears her volco, and' knows
that he has been betrayed. In the gray dawn of
morning, when Marcus returns to his own apart-
ments, he finds his mother In bis bedchamber.
Sho discards and curses him, and Informs him
that the only way to preserve hla honor and that
of the family is to die. Marcus resolves to com-
mit suicide, and asks his mother for hor ring,
which contains o subtle poison. She, woman-like,
when she finds he Is about to follow her advice,
begs and entreats him not to do so; but he
Bnatchee the ring from her finger, swallows the
poison, and dies at her feet. It Is fortunate for the
gallants of our period that the oustoms which
prevailed In society In Borne A. D. 18 bave been
changed, otherwise wo fear their numbers would
be sadly depleted. Mr. Wheelock did the best he
could with a character which would have been a
very strong one had lt been adapted to and acted
by one ot the opposite sex. There was but little
opportunity for tho display of signal ability In
the other main characters. Arrla was the next In
Importance alter Messallna, and was played vig-
orously and with discrimination by Mrs. J. L.
Carhart, who fairly dlvldod the honors with the
star In several Important scenes, and won a de-
served call beforo the our tain. Business was only
fair during the week.
A new THEATTiE is being built upon the slto ot

Alle SAsIEB as 'Melican M En— The Chinese as
a race have ever been credited with rjc-eaesslng
raro Imitative powers, which enable them to re-
produce and duplicate intricate and delicate ma-
chinery, etc, and many of those in Ban Francisco,
Cal., have used these powers in becoming civil-
ized, though they seem to have been eomewhat
unfortunate In selecting the hoodlum element of
that city as their models. Recently a boneflt was
given In the Chinese Theatre there on Saturday
night, and It was announced that the show would
run until two o'clock Sunday morning. About
eighteen hundred Chinamen attended, and every-
thing went off very well until one o'clock, when
Ofllcer Brown walked Into the theatre and at-
tempted to enforce the ordinance which requires
that theatres shall close at that hour. The ofllcer
rapped on the back ot a bench, and exclaimed In
stentorian voice that "the Chinese must go,"
but the Chinese would not budge. He then
went behind the scenes and drove the asjors and
musicians from tbe stage. As bedtd tbls tho
audience raised tho cry of "Tah, Klve Lah,"
which means "strike blm." Some of the audience
mode for tbe stage, probably with the Intention
of striking the officer: but the arrival of rein-
forcements and the exhibition of firearms caused
the advancing party to retreat. The audience
then began tearing up the benches and every-
thing movable In the premises, destroying the
some. They also hurled missiles at the officers
on the stage, and then tore down the doors, which
they usod as bottering-rams to demolish the box-
offlco. The proprietors of the theatre will be re-
quired to e.tp-" ' 1 at least 5800 to repair tbe dam-
age done, yvhue the riot was In progress some
special officer--, •.a.--^- -1 up and fired soveral shots
over the crowd- -v?- '- ^caused It to disperse. On
Goon, while '■ ■" act ot demolishing a bench,
was arrestev. iockt 1 up for malicious mischief,
and oonv1cte4 la the police -court ofthe offense.

that, notwithstanding his conduct, she might
still try to think kindly of him ; and heolosed
with the assurance that his affection for her
was still unaltered, and would end only with
his life. ^
The same mall brought a fetter from the cap-
tain's hand to his friend Bavenswood, whioh
that gentleman showed freely to the curious at
Potter's Bflliard-rooms and elsewhere. It was
not written In low spirits, bat rather In a sort
of good-humored defiance of fate and all her
machinations. He had played the sooundrel,
he supposed some people thought and-at the
present stage his own mere words could hot
be offered In defense; 'but, as In Hiss Thur-
low*s letter, he Indicated that time would show
his onaracter In a better light and be his iusti
floatlon. ' • '
Both these letters were dated from New
York. He did not appear to be under the ne-
cessity of keeping dark, at least; en the oon-
trary, he spent most of his time in pnbilo
places, parUonlarly the theatres, and the latter
part of nls communication contained a great
deal of the current theatrical gossip, soon as
he thought might amuse his friend.
Bavenswood, whose temper had not im-
proved lately, sneered at the letter and spoke
with anything but respect of its writer.
"A poltroon, sir," he said to little Billy Glan-
ders at the billiard-room, after the performance
oh the night following the arrival of the mis-
sive. "A gentleman would not have acted bo."
. He addressed the crowd In general, rather
than little Billy, and they heard him with great
respect, as he lounged by the fire, splendid and
proud and lU-humored. He did not often show
himself there, and was usually taciturn
enough. They agreed with htm. Deddlngton
was a chivalrous plaoe, and Its people as of
one famfly,-and tbey resented Ulas Thorlow's
Injury with/honest warmth.
Bavenswood talked a great deal that night,
and In a way made t»imn»if agreeable. ' It was
late when he withdrew, and even then he did
not go to his lodgings, bat rambled about the
streets, quite alone, for half an hour, and then
strnok off into the oountry, and I dont think
there was a soul awake In the town when' he
oame back. Mrs. Dobbles was so accustomed
to bis whimsical comings and goings that
hardly any noise he might have made could
have awakened her. Bo when, about two or
three o'clock— or who knows what time?— he
let himself in with his latchkey and ascended
to his room, he did not disturb her. Pale and
fatigued he looked, in the light of his lamp, as
he entered the room, and wearilv but kindly
he spoke In answer to the greeting of his little
dog: and so threw hlmseiflnto a ohalr before
the fire and mused dismally.
"Tired to death, curse it 1" he said, with a
light thump on the table. "What a fool I have
been I Do I know what I am doing? Was
there ever such a mad piece of business in all
the world 1"
And so on. Incoherently, he soliloquized,
with an sorts of tnterjeoUoaVand -sosistlme*
very strprrg Inngnage. Andvatla»t-up he-got
and went over to the window where his desk
stood, and from a locked compartment took a
small vial with a curious stopper. ' Borne
liquid quite white, like water, this vessel held,
and he measured a quantity ot it bv a tea-
spoon In a glass, and, qualifying It with water,
drank it off. A solution of morphia, I sap-
pose It was, whioh he had originally used for
headache, and a good deal oftener, perhaps, of
late for pain of another sort. The drug was
quieting; and now, lazily, he undressed and
got himself to bed.
CHAPTER VUT. — AOOTDENT.
Krs. Thurlow had formerly assisted her hus-
band as writing-mistress In the early days of
the "Academy for Toung Gentlemen," and was
considered an eminent authority on penman-
ship, and even professed, I believe, a know-
ledge of the more abstruse science of autogra-
ihy. as it la called, or judgment of the oharao-
er by the handwriting. Bhe avowed that, as
with some people, a face once seen Is never
forgotten, so was handwriting by her.
One afternoon, several days after the arrival
of Captain Northgate's letter, Mrs. Thurlow,
sitting with Rhoda, suddenly asked to see that
composition again.
The Doctor had gone out riding, his custom
always In the afternoon, and the two ladies
were quite alone. '
Rhoda produced the letter, and It was at-
tentively read and commented on for the twen-
tieth time, and Mrs. Thurlow, Inspecting It
oare fully once more in sHenoe, said :
"Written, yon see, in a great hurry, and not
In his usual hand. I should hardly take the
penmanship for Captain Northgate's" — she
spoke of him as Cyril no more— "exoept for
the cramped and straggling formation of his
characters. Have you any other specimens of
his writing?" - •
In' the mnslo-book there was a song, the
words of whioh he had oopled for Rhoda from
the original in the hands of a young lady at
the theatre.
"A very marked difference, yon observe,"
pursued Mrs. Thurlow, comparing the two
specimens, "but at the same time a general re-
semblance. This letter Is written in a decid-
edly tremulous hand — can't you detect a cer-
tain agitation In the loops and ourves?"
"I doubt notwithstanding, whether he was
in a very violent state of agitation," laughed
Rhoda. "Simply a shaklness of the nerves
from bad hours and had habits of all kinds."
"It cost him a pang to write this letter.
Rhoda, and I shall never believe differently,"
retorted Mrs. Thurlow Impressively. "When
a person writes a letter In a style of oallgraphy
so very different from what is usually employ-
ed that it is scarcely recognizable, I maintain
that there Is decided mental agitation."
"I dont know, I am sure: but It Is all over,
and I am very glad," said Rhodaquietly. "Oh I
here Is papa,'' and she rose as the old-fashion-
ed vehiole, almost In the style of a doctor's
gig.dtove up to the gate.
"There -la someone with him, I think," said
Mrs. Thurlow. peering ont curiously; "and
what can your father mean? He Is tying the
horse to the post''
Rhoda had gone to the other window, from
which post of observation she saw Dr. Thur-
low carefully descend from the gig, followed
imm ediately by another' person— a ngure she
recognized, with something like a shock— for
It was aharles Bavenswood^ •■ - .• t-
'Who can It possibly be, dear?" Inquired
Mrs. Thurlow, anxiously - inspecting the
stranger. "How very distinguished-looking.
If Doctor Thurlow expected anyone to' Sea, It
is singular he did not Inform me." . ■ '
The two gentlemen came up the little gravel-
ed walk, the Doctor In advanoe, and disappear-
ed together tinder the hooded poroh, and a
second afterwards were heard in the nalL
They were in the room. Bhoda through a
mist saw the tall form of ' Ravenswood and his -
singularly handsome face; and In her" ears
sounded the confused murmur ot the Doctor's
introduction— all like a dream.
' ' "Beally saved my life," she heard her father
say more distinctly, as she gradually returned '
to herself. "Old Darby, you know — safe and
gentle as a house-dog, . I always thought— I
should have trusted him anywhere— it Is really
a nnftftmHintnft 1 "; I cant. Imagine what
came over him. I never was bo frightened —
my heart is beating yet I certainly owe Mr.
Bavenswood my life.
. . "The children In the road startled Mm,"
said Bavenswood in bis inexpressibly sweet
and gen tig tones. "There was a boy beating a
drum, juu ujayi remember." _
"ggadl-T T s V s uj , aa usual. In a reverie, and re-
memW/nttrdng exoept that Old Darby, as
sober as myself the Instant before, suddenly
reared and bolted away with me, Jerking the
reins out of my hand. An earthquake could
hardly have been more sarprisiAg.
So he told the story of the runaway more In
detail, by whioh it appeared that-Bavanswood,
opportunely In the neighborhood, had cour-
ageously rushed Into the road and seized "Old
Darby" just at the- point when that hitherto,
faithful animal was about to toss his master
out of the gig Jnto a ditch.
.' :r dare say. nothing more serious than a good
ghaklng>up and oonousslon would have fol-
lowiad/had the horse succeeded, Bavenswood
pooh-poohed his exploit. 'But Dootor Thur-

low, naturally timid, was confoundedly fright-
ened, and looked upon his escape from a hor-
rible death as simply miraculous.
Mrs. Thurlow received the flrst mention ot
Bavenswood's name a little stiffly; bnt, the
story of the Doctor's misadventure having
been related, she thanked his rescuer honestlv
and warmly. In truth, it was impossible not
to be Impressed with the actor's appearance —
so handsome and highbred — and he so modest-
ly deprecated all claims to any acknowledg-
ment, and he spoke so gently and even sadly ;
and. In shortvery few minutes had slipped by
before Mrs. Thurlow oame to the conclusion
that he was, beyond all question, the most at-
tractive person she had ever met She had al-
ways entertained her own notions about theat-
rical people— a mysterious tribe, like the gipsies
— subjects for speculation, but not presentable
or to be cultivated. ' Bavenswood had shivered
that theory.
All this while Bhoda had not uttered a word,
nor had she met the actor's glance, and yon
would have said they had never been before
aware of each other's existence. In the first
shook of the surprise she was, perhaps, a little
lrlghtened; but now a faint smile flickered
across her face, and she began to perceive the
humorous phase ot the situation.
"Ton will stay to tea with us, Mr. Bavens-
wood?" said Mrs. Thurlow hospitably. "I In-
sist"
He murmured something about duties at the
theatre; but the lady pinned him closely, and
he was obliged to admit that he was not to act
that evening. Thus It happened that he re-
mained and drank tea with the Doctor's family,
and over that nectar made himself agreeable
upon many subjects. It was hardly avlodnble
that the unlucky toplo of Northgato should
come np, although Bavenswood tried to elude
Mrs. Thorlow's Inquiries with all the dexterity
of which he was master.
"You were very mtlroate with him, Xr. Ra-
venswood, were yon not?"- •
"He was, strictly speaking, more intimate
with me," said he. "I thought I knew all his
secrets, such as they were; but events have
shown differently.".
. He exhibited the Captain's letter, whioh Mrs.
Thurlow examined curiously and commented
on. Here, again, she avowed a discovery of a
marked ohange in the absentee's handwriting,
showing thathe was, as she vaguely expressed
It, under olrcu instances of great mental agita-
tion. ■
"Under duress, you think ?s. Inquired her
guest oarelessly. .-'' ">" .»-<:■■«•■■ - •/

She made quite a little v^IssertatibnTwltb: the f "'

ing for a group- BTV-qnlet .Dootor Thurlow
was delighted with his guest — a kindred ailnd ,
he thought^-and, the toplo of the stage arising,
would have monopolized him, had not Mrs.
Thurlow protested.
The. actor did not lose the opportunity to
say a few graceful words In defense of his pro-
fession. . :iL1<- ■■
"There Is maSfrjpreJudloe, of oburse,f re-
marked Mrs. Thurlow, with a very distinct
recollection of- her -own recent Impressions.
"Very unjust prejudioe tn- many oases, I am
sure.''
' Rhoda sang,- and then played an accom-
paniment for . Bavenswood, whose fine bari-
tone made Its usual Impression; and than they
performed a duet together. . ,
It would, I think, be difficult to estimate
how muoh we of- modern soolety owe the
Slano. If we are obliged to endure a good
ealof aurioular torture. at the hands of gen-
erally well-meaning but mistaken 1 performers
upon this instrument, la there not here en-
forced, as in so many other things; that jaw of
compensation which keeps up the balance of
existence and makes It endurable? Under the
rumble and thunder of the bass pedal, what
Important oonfldenoeB, otherwise impossible
tn a crowded room, are successfully exchang-
ed? Half the details of modern love-making
are conducted over the keyboard. Two peo-
ple oooupylng this point of vantage, be the
throng never so great, are, while always under
the general eye, as comfortably Isolated as
they might be anywhere on earth : and so im-
pressions are. made, understandings arrived
at, quarrels compounded, and the whole busi-
ness of courtship carried on.
It is not to be supposed that . Bavenswood
and Miss Thurlow, with their seonst between
them, oould accept the accident of late whioh,
contrary to anything that at least one of them
had ever dreamed, had thus b r ooj tnt them to-
gether, free to be friendly, without experienc-
ing a wish to exobange vlewB Upon so ex-
traordinary a circumstance, not-even a look
had passed between them so fs*Aad.srt tholr
formal introduction both, as w&Asflow, had
loved like strangers: Now, howfcvex, the mo-
ment had arrived when the constraint and un-
certainty of the previous 8ltnatton-must,lnone
way or another, be dissolved. -.•
. "Ton have caused me a great deaji'of suffer-
ing this evening," said Bfioda In a< low voice,
while she played and he sang. "I' feel a con-
tempt for mvself that I can hardly express.
Could anything be more degrading than the
rolel have been playing— pretending never to
have seen you before?"
"What could I do?" he said a moment later,
when It was her turn to bear the burden of
their performance. "It was your place to have
recognized me— yon must allow that in justice.
I did not wish to come; bnt your father in-
sisted, and placed what he was pleased to con-
sider hiSjObligatlon to me in saoh a light that
to have refused would have been -simply In-
sult Ton surely cannot think that I would
willingly Inflict pain upon yon of any kind."
"Well, you know at nest ot what hypocrisy
I am capable. It is all very curious ; and I
suppose you remember what Isald the last
time we saw each other— about removing poor
papa's prejudices." v~
"I remember every word you Mgfar spoke to
me, Miss Thurlow," said BaTenswood sin-
cerely. A: -
"Very little worth the trouble; fm afraid.
But, regarding papa's prejudloef /Fthlnk they
are effectually removed— manuna^ also— and,
unless you dislike us all very muoh, this wilt

It was quite eleven wheaJRayfihewood . bade
good-night and withdrew fxfnifflijB hospitable

how would It end? A shadow oxnesed him for

ine gooontflaof- the night-Tipou i ma j Joe ] ' wa Ued out there some Una ago, and found
-Where have you been and where are you going?
How did the play go off to-night? And how
was the house?"
Joe sulked a little and replied dryly; but
Ravenswood was not to bo put off ao. His own
spirits were so exuberant toat he soon rallied
the comedian Into good humor also, and In a
minute or two that honest fellow dismissed his
grudge and linked his arm In his companion's
very amicably.
"You must go with me to my rooms, Joe. I
want someone to talk to. When did you hear
from Bella?"
Joe winced, and Bavenswood felt his own
arm tremble ; but he said quietly
"Sue does -not write to -me. Of course, yon
know we had a — a disagreement"
'.'How. should I know? Tou dont imagine
that she writes to me either,- Joe? Don't mind
the disagreement: women love to keep up a
mysterious, smouldering quarrel with a fellow
they like. Ill read yon something from a book
about that"
Bavenswood let himself in -with a latoh-key,
and they went up to his rooms together, where
he answered the welcome ot his terrier, lighted
a lamp and produced some refreshments.
"They enjoy a lover's misery," he oontlnued,
going to the bookcase and taking down a
small volume. "Listen I it Is Hons Oruter
who said this," and emlUog, a little sarcastic-
ally It may be, he read :
"I knew she loved me, for we never met
without a quarrel. The morning she slapped
my face filled the measure of my bliss, for
then I saw that, she could not control her feel-
ings for me. With women, love Is like the
Idol worship of an Indian, tribe; at the mo-
ment their hearts are bursting with devotion
they like to cut and wound and maltreat their
god. With them; this Is the ecstaoy of their
passion."
With the same sardonlo smilo on his hand-
some face, he replaoed the book and came to
the fire and aat down before it with his bonds
In his pockets, and for some tune, while he
mused thus, there was a silence.
"Yes. women— girls, I mean, of oourse— are
mysterious oreatures, Bavenswood," said Joe,
who very dimly comprehended the metaphysics
just read for nls benefit; "bnt so are men —
some men, at least Now, I never understood

way of friendship. There la another— not a

And he sang a snatoh of song, wild and sacjk
-addressed to an Ideal love. His mood ohangad-
when he had finished, and he sald rather bit-
terly: •
"We. all .follow phantoms, Joe; and, by the
way, that reminds me — how are your supernat-
ural investigations progressing?''. ,

ably and smiled shyly. . ■ : - >

: -iCLaat night, I assure you, after/the perform-
ance I was not very sleepy, andil^vislted the

Bavenswood' tod been poking the fire, and
he stopped abruptly with a «ha¥p "Ah 1"
"I was' there -atone; and ;lt" was after twelve
o'clocf.'andl «s»ureyod that I saw lights and
figures.- -Toft 'wBl think me a fool; but that
old bnfldlnff fs haunted Just as they say."
"Haunted by rats." - . . . . .
"I swear I saw lights moving by the win-
do ws, and twice heard a very strange, unearth-
ly ory, and once the form of a man uame to
the low door below, with a torch In his hand;
and stood there for over a minute— jus I euoh a
person as Dangerfleld Is described to have
"Tou were frighteued, I suppose?''
• :.*,'I— well, of oourse,. I left a -little queer;
there was not a soul about, and the' night was
-very dark, andyooknow ttis the'most dismal'
spot on earth.":- :
Bavenswood returned the poker to its corner
and leaned back; refleotlng; but he did hot
seem to "be In' quite the'same good "humor. - ,
. "If. you really did see what. yon. describe,,
and it was notalllmaglnRtion/'lie said, "there*
Is only 'one- explanation— you saw human

It
by no means snob a ruin, aa I had been led to
suppose, and a very little would put It in prop-
er oendltion." ' '
"He oould never find a tenant"
"No trouble on that score, believe me. It is
just this — some clever rogues have a snug nest
there, and keep up the bad reputation of the
plaoe by that very old device of making noises
atnlght and showing lighted Xet the owner

am. not the only one who has seen queer
things there. A fellow driving past a- few
nights ago saw— and he is' willing to swear it— ;
old Dangerfleld and tbeyoung officer himself."
"What young -officer?" asked Ravenswood
sharply, and Joe fancied that he looked rather
paler than usual.
"The British ofuoer who was murdered there
—dont you recollect the story? His body,
some eay, was buried In the cellar. A mur-
dered man would not be likely to rest quietly
in a grave like that" - .
- "You are a fool, if you believe such stuff as
that " said Bavenswood roughly. "It's'all a
lie— a villainous lie," and he, not used to swear-
ing; blurted out a round oath, such as consid-
erably startled his companion- -
"But this.fellow the other night— a farmer,
you knowr'from the up-country — swears that
he saw.the ghost of the officer— a pale, slight
delicate young man— a tan ding near the mill In
the moonlight". > . - .■:*..-»
"It's not true, I tell yon,". retorted . Bavens-
wood violently. "The Idea of a rational man
like you believing any snoh rubbish 1 I dont
know what to think of you. Butts."
H e seemed to be In one of bis tempers, and
struck the arm of his ohair violoosly.
"There's no. use in getting angry about It"
said Joe. "Borne people have a constitutional
tendency towards the marvelous, as doctors
will tell you, and I suppose I am one of them.
I cant help believing that a murdered man
will come back after death and denounce bis
assassin. I would do it myself* . .
"But It can't be done."
"Well, why dont you go there some night
and Investigate-far yourself?"
"Not 1 1 I am not anxious to be knocked on
the head for my money — or— or that kind of
thing; and if you are wise yon will keep away
too, my good fellow. Lots of dangerous char-
acters about this neighborhood ; they were
speaking or It at Potters yesterday. I never
bad the fancy of some people for prowling In
strange places late at night"
Joe smiled.
"Some say differently, Ravenswood. The old
woman, you know"— and he nodded upward—
"what Is her name?— Mrs. Dobbles— says, you
keep np bonis at all."
_. "Curse that woman 1" and Ravenswood did
onrse her vehemently. "Ill leave these lodg-
ings— 111 move' to-morrow. Tou never could'
think of suoh lies as she Is constantly telling
about me."
He rose and began striding up and down the
floor, raining anathemas upon his landlady,
somnolent above, and peacefully unconscious
of the dreadful things he Invoked upon her.
Bnt the gust blew over presently, and he re-
«•"■""* "»*M' -- ,
"Folry unworthy- oT ehudren7 Joe," he eatct
"to believe In suoh stories/and yon wfU find
yourself In a - very ' ridiculous position a
lauffhin gj^tDoktor 'Bverybbdy-^lf yoa eontfariie
to oherlsh suoh notions. I dont suppose any
orlme ever took plaoe there; and if it did, I
certainly dont believe the victim oould come
back to tell ot It The time U when a man's
brains are ont the man is dead, and that's the
end of him. 1 '
A little longer they talked, and Joe told some
of his beet authenticated ghost-stories, and
related several out of Sir waiter Scott and
other histories of this sort of lore. Ravens-
wood listened— rather impatiently. It seemed—
certainly he was not impressed.
' They parted kindly, and Bavenswood ac-
companied his guest to the door with a light,
and stood there for a minute or two .watching
him until he had melted Into the distant shad-
ows of the street
"A good-natured little fool," soliloquized
Ravenswood as he ran up the stairs again.
"All fools are good-natured, they eay — and
dangerous."
He had a letter to write whioh might not be
postponed, and, Immediately getting out- bis
materials, he Indited -that composition,- whioh
was brief and to the following effect :
Mr Dear BzLiiA. — So far aU Is well. Every-
thing has been accepted without question, and I
have not bad the least Inquietude until this even-
ing, and that only momentary. Joe Butts was
here a little while ago, and told me something
about Oladewater Mill being haunted— lights and
people being seen there at night, etc Bat there
is no real necessity. Lam sore, to- feel disturbed.
The secret burled there will not be revealed. Who
would have a motive to unearth It} Idle ouiioslty
might do mischief; bnt I shall take effectual
measures to prevent accident Suspicion there Is
none, so accident is all that we need provide
against What Is hidden from the light Is sate.
Aa I have already several times directed, remain
passive, and trust me as I trust you. Tou' seem
lobe growing Impatient; bat that most be con-
quered. - Walt only a little longer, and you shall
be free., Devotedly yours, b.
He sealed this la an envelope and locked It
in his desk. Then he returned to his chair be-
fore the fire, and dawn, found him there still,
enjoying a waking dream, whioh he had begun
to believe lately might, after all, hot be so Im-
possible as It had once seemed.

have been, but It wasn't; It was Kreraham— Isulr
Olara Xveiaham was a London belle ot threesea-
aona, with the faoeot an old Spanlah or ItnlfaaTt
tnasler's angel, and the figure o( a ereeksttttae.
She was rich, immeneery rich, and no doubt
woul d ha ve been happy If she had not been snoh
a martyr to mod. Everything bored her. She
had tried everything, and everything was «iih«
Bhe had tried high art and high ohuroh, »*~e
everything else high— of oourse she could do-
nothing low— and It was all the amino. She
thought she would write a novel, because all
novels were so dull, and It wearied her' to lead
them: bat when she had two or three cha paean
maids who write society novels, and I'm sure I
do nor know enough French to suit the popular
Idea ot ou r conv ersation." r
So she yawned, and for very wosttkwJB* - WM
obliged to content herself with ortejange few '
new toilets, which were the en tj of aU barfem "
friends, as she herself was the distraction of I
male artiQafntanofs.
"I wish tbey would not propose so ofl
said to her cousin Miss Lvdla Lyls. "They all
make the same faces and say theaame thing ii» ssi^
same way. lost aa they all drees their hair alike
and patronize the same tailor. The Ideal n
ever I did accept one, he should not be a tailor's
lay- figure. When I marry, it will bo to Have a
master."
From which It may be Inferred that Lady fllaza
was somewhat romantic, for all her languor.
Of course there was an aspiring yeoman wbav'-T''
adored this Lady Olara who ahould havoFbeSs* '
named Tere de Vere. Only he wasn't aweawStnT
but a barrister of good family, though poor- and
his name wasfJharleeWlckham. Ho y -nnr1 hlfnassT
alone In a conservatory one night with Lsjdr
Olara, and he dropped on one knee made*
proposal In proper novellstlo style. Lady CTJara
yawned, and said she dtd not care abont prlTaSe
theatricals, as a general thing— they were suoh a
bore. : —
"I do not like to see anyone I have a respect for
make a fool ot himself," she said, when nar-
rating the «l>«timM.iin« tn h.ri^tnn lfl» T yj-ft
Charles did not despair. l}owevar. and when
Lady Clara and all the wortdwent to Brighton he
went too. r
Lady Clara would persist in driving a patrol 1
unmanageable horses, and toe consequence was
they ran away with her one day. and she would
have been killed If Charles, at the risk of his own
life, had not stopped them. He thought It well
to strike while the Iron was hot, and again made
an ofTer ot nls heart and hand. Lady darn antd
she didn't believe In tntrodaolng tbeaxrloal effects
Into everyday life, and didn't^ Approve of marry-
ing a hero to soft musto, wirhra tableau at the)
whole company. It was a bore. Still our hero
did not despair.
"She wants a man who Is her master," he said,
for Misa Lydla had basely betrayed this senti-
ment ot Lady Clara's. "Well, she shall find one."
. Bo he bided his time.
Lady Clara was more bored at Brighton than in,
Belgravla. She watched the nshlng.boatB ajo out
to sea, and thought It would be a novelty to catch
some flsh. Charles offered to row her out for
that purpose, and she gractooaly accepted has
offer.
When they were abont a mile- from the ahore
Lady Clara dropped her glove Into the water, and.
as she darted forward to eatoh It, the boat which
was a flat-bottomed one, capsized. The .next
.thing Lady Olara knew she was sitting ot Ulebo4>
torn ot the boat supported by Charles WloUiam'a
arm. She felt vary uncomfortable, but mnninud
her coolnoas In a moment. - - a
"Thank you." she said. "I can art here with-

Charles at once removed his arm, shifted m> thai

THBATBICALB In New York aeem difficult te
understand ]nst now. A year or so ago some ot
onr most attractive Broadway stars, falling to
draw ln their nsoal places along the line ot our
great thoroughfare, passed over to the western
quarter of the city, and did remarkably well
there with a low scale of prices. Thla year they
have once more made a change ot base, and the
Old Bowery Is now their objective point. Thus,

vicinity, but It required the theft of a millionaire's
body to direct attention to the subject. The ar-
rest and conviction ot the parties who stole the

protecting the remalns-ot those who die poor.

AXiTHOUOH Congress Hall, the Atlantic, and

Old Ocean, whence they would have been carrlt d
out to sea, and all traces of the conflagration
been thereby obliterated.

or shall we aay legal ceaaonr— why an J^igllsh-.
man may not dramatize an American etory. We
apeak thus ot "That Lass o' Lowrta's," becauxe
It was written, printed and copyrighted tn Amer-
ica, and because Urn, Burxrect, although an
KngHthwoman by birth, achlered her flnt llt-
arary distinction In this oountry. Undeniably
Charles Beade waa at liberty to make a play out
ot the story, if he so chose. He had the right to
do it— legally. He could bring It out at any
TingllnTi theatre— legally. He could profit by the
brains of another, and' share' the receipts of the
box-office— legally. But— but la thla the Oharlea
Beade who, not very long ago, uncorked the vials
of his -vituperative wrath and poured their vitri-
olic contents upon the heads ot all thieves who
atole the products of other men's brains? lathis
the Charles Beade who, ln announcing his dram-
atisation ot thla very story, advertised that he
would give a handsome reward to any person
who would "give him tamely notice ot piracy"—
empbsndsed with a big PT Is this the Charles
Beade who. In a prefatory note to the American
edition ot "Pnt Yosttialf la His Plans" (we hay*
not a copy ot the book at hand, bat we quote his
worda as -nearly as wa can from memory), said
that he hoped all . reputable pub llshen In this
oountry ' would respect the moral right which
Messrs. Sheldon ft Co. had acquired by paying
him liberally for the advanoe-aheeta ot his story T
It this, indeed, be the same Charles Beade, then
either time haa wrought ln him a marvelona
change, or else that which we mistook for honest
warfare against literary piracy was, ln fact, noth-
ing more than the explosion of a very noisy
blank -cartridge.
But the author ot "A Simpleton" endeavors, ln
his letter, to draw a sharp line between copy-
right and'atagertght. He would have it appear
that there Is no piracy about stealing the mater-
ial for an acting drama. Legally he la right, so
longaa tho drama, lnqneetlon le acted ln England.
But what are the tacts in this case? Mrs. Frances
Hodgson Burnett wrote a etory which achieved—
and deserved— amatlng success. This story
straightway reprinted ln London, and not long
afterwards was adapted to the stage, intact,
three verelona had been advertised (and two ot
them performed) In England before Mr. Beade
took the matter ln hand. With characteristic
modesty he explains ln tils letter that he should
not have undertaken the task if the other drama-
ttstahad shown themselves capable of dealing
with the subject. Having so tar condescended
aa to take hold of this story and dramatize
it, as It should be dramattzed, air. Beade
pro c eeds te sell to an American actress the
right to play his version ot an American
story ln America I And he coolly writes to
the author of that story : "Ho egg can be roasted
all on one side. I cannot be divinely Just to
American citizens in a boalneas where they
never show me one grain of human Justice
or even mercy; and so long as your nation
Is a literary thief you must expect occasional
reprisals. These reprisals are a sort of bad
equity." Let It be remembered that this noble
sentiment la expressed by the ehivalrlo cham.
plon of the moral rights ot authors. But
these are not all the tacts. Mrs. Burnett not
only wrote, published and copyrighted "That
Lass o' Lowrle's" in this country, but she re-
served all stagerlghts, dramattzed her own novel,
and copyrighted that dramatization. Mr. Beade
closes his letter to Br. Burnett by asserting that
ln the United States, as ln England, there Is
no such thing as stagerlght ln a novel. Edu
cated Londoners have been known to Inquire
whether New-Torkera live exclusively on thi
buffaloes which thez kill . In the streets, 01 ,
whether our diet is occasionally varied by the In-
troduction ot a boiled papoose. We do not look
to resident Englishmen generally tor a very com'
prahenalve knowledge of America; but we con-
fess to a certain degree ot surprise at «tmin g a
writer ot Mr. Beade's posltlveness proclaiming
his ignorance of our laws with such aelt-satlsned
assurance; Doubtless he will learn. If he did
not long ago know, that ln the United States there
Is such a thing as stagerlght ln a novel, and,
moreover, when that right la Infringed on, there
is a law to punish the offender. So far aa we are
able to learn, no exception to thla law Is made ln
favor of Mr. Charles Beade, novelist.
Very properly, Mrs. Burnett took It upon her-
self to reply to the letter addressed to her hus-
band. Her answer cannot fall to prove racy
reading to Mr. Beade. She says, among other
things, that some time ago she wrote a letter to
the novelist requesting him to dramatize her
story for England, but afterwards decided not to
send It. "I wish I had now," she adds, "because
then I might have retained an Illusion or eo.
The keen but delicate irony of that sentence Is
worthy of Its author. We have no doubt It will
be appreciated by Mr. Beade. The author ot
"Foul Play" tells us he Is a dramatist, and that
nothing but bad laws ever drove him Into the
novel. It that la so, let us thank bad laws. Mr.
Beade should be Judged by the same rules which
are applied to other men. We certainly have no
desire to belittle his literary achievements. He
has written some ot the best novels of the day.
The crisp, bright style of his earlier works
was a sort ot revelation. The trenchant tone
of some ot hie later books effected reforms
which Parliament had failed to accomplish.
Perhaps he Is greater even as a dramatist than as
a novelist; but If that be so, it seems a little odd
that he should be forced to find material for his
plays ln the brain-product of other writers.
Greatness ln a dramatist Is the power to create,
not to adapt. However, while we admire Mr.
Beade's talents, we hold that he had no moral
right to make use of Mrs. Burnstt's story without
first consulting that lady ; and he had no legal
right to sell his version of a play which had al-
ready been copyrighted ln this oountry. As for
the letter which be addressed to Sr. Burnett, we
can only repeat what we said at the outset : If
Mr. Charles Beade were not a novelist of repute
we should, arter reading that letter, be tempted
to apply to him some one of the polite epithets
which he Is continually applying to other people.

The Tall games of this Long Island club were
held on the Manhattan A. C. grounds, this city,
on Saturday afternoon, Nov. 9, and were wit-
nessed by a tew hundred spectators within the
enclosure, and by many more from the windows
ot the houses overlooking the grounds, which
afforded an excellent view without the payment
of a farthing. The management waa fair, but
nod the Inner ring been kept clear of all
except those wbo really had business to be
there a boy named Bieel would have es-
caped such injury aa he received by being
etmok on the aide of the head by a 161b shot
which Orasslck, the CUedonlan athlete, was
amusing himself by practising with, without due
regard to the proximity ot others. The lad was,

THE -WAIsK IN CHICAGO.
We have received the following communication
concerning the recent professional pedestrian
contest In Chicago, which, from the statement
therein made, appears to have been a strangely
mlnffi*— eg*** ;
CXIOAOO. ILL.. Nov. 8. 1878,
Faaatt Qtraacv, Esq.— zasao- 51r.- I wish to state a few
jaeu In connection with the 80-mlle walk given ben last
Wednesday. Nov. a, at Use Bxpaaltloa BuUdlng. far the
benefit of the Boon of the Good Shepherd. The executive
committee or the lair fart tha mattar in the bands ot Dan-
lalO'Lsary. Toe prl res were a medal and ago to flnt, eao
to second, as to third, S13 to fourth. The eo tries ware Jim
Smith, Oea Ouyon. O'Leary, Olmstead, Ruaaell, Roach,
Bohmehl,and two ambitions novices, who petered outsoon
after the start. Boasell quit at 17 miles, and Roach at 19
miles. Schmeblled from the sun by deliberately running,
although Tanzey, referee, cautioned the men at the start
that any running or skipping would disqualify the
patty so doing. Then wen over 1,000 people pres-
ent, and a general protest waa raited against Schmehl
ronnina; but Scbmebl's jndga— Peter Odlln— In Tan-
say's absence said that Schmehl waa walking fair; but,
when Tar. rev returned, he went on the track, and
told Schmehl he would take him off If he did notstop. He
then started on a run, and, in spite of tbe protests from
the crowd, continued to run. Tbe plan was to beat Smith
out of first prize. Ouyon, Bmltb and Olmstead again pro-
tested sgalnst Schmehl, but Tanzey told tbem to go on and
not mind, aa Schmabl waa oat ol the walk ; yet at tbe con-
clusion of the match Tanzey eneaked oB and O'Leary
awarded the first prize to Schmehl. A general cry of In-
dignation was made against the ruling, as O'Leary had
no right In the world to award any prizes, as be was a con-
testant and a badly-osed-op one at that, Ooyoa bolng only
10 seconds behind him at the finish. We measured the
track next morning, and tound It SOD yards over length In
tbe 60 miles, and it waa very heavy, as it was only
finished twenty mlnnteo before the start. O'Leary wrote a
letter to Dr. Dunn, the holder or the medal, telling him to
Sn It to Sehmehl, and Dunn did as directed. The Execn.
ve Commlctce last night met and passed resolutions con-
demning O'Leary. and Jndges fjculley and Morrison and
Alderman Daly wen appointed to get np a medal and
award Smith first prize, and present blm with a testi-
monial, stating that Smith won (airly. I will send yon a
statement mm the papers, as tbe matter to not yet ended,
and O'Leary haa lost a gnat many friends by his action.

BICTCIOfi wa. HOBBE.
We find this ln Zand md Water:
I am furnished with a remarkable account of a race be-
tween a horse and two bicyclists— one Cnaa Terroot, tbe
champion of Prance, and the other M. Oraatln or the
Vealnet, for a bet oOjOlrsnca. It waa run orar the first-
rate road which crosses the forest ot St. Germain, near
Paris (almost ln a straight line), from the gate close to the
station, through Lea Logea. aa far aa the bridge of
Le Cooflens. St. Honorlne. a distance of 11,030 metres
(six miles 1,900 yards). Tbe horre led at first, but
wss soon passed by Terront, who. wben the rail-
way lines were crossed (not without awful jerking to
both machines and carriage), went to the trout at a ran
pace, and succeeded ln beatlog the exhausted animal by
26s. Time taken by Mr. Fiquet, Judge of the race: Cbae.

UoQbegob vs. Teublow.— The 25-mlle walk-
ing match between Van McGregor and Sydney
Thurlow, for a gold medal, was decided at the
M. A. 0. Grounds, this city, Nov. 9. The first five
miles were accomplished by HcQregor ln Mm
Msec., leading his opponent by 600 yards. The
ten miles wero walked ln lb. Mm. lOsec., McGreg-
or at this time being ahead nine laps, or 1 mile
and 220 yards, his opponent showing signs of dls
tress. McGregor walked fifteen miles ln 3h. 2m
issec., Thurlow falling more ln the rear. Here
McGregor went off the track tor fifteen minutes,
to change socks, eto. Twenty miles were gone
over by McGregor in 4h. 10m., he at this time
being two miles ln trout of his man. On the
twenty-second mile Thurlow, seeing that his
chance was hopeless, gave up, and McGregor fin ,
lehod the distance ln 5h. 17m. Msec. Timekeep-
er, Dr. Goodman: umpires, W. B Brown for Mc-
Gregor, L. Qlbney tor Thurlow; referee. Jack
